The Craig Fahle Show

Detroit Police Chief James Craig talked to WDET’s Craig Fahle on Tuesday. He discussed the department’s recent raid on the Colony Arms Apartments on East Jefferson, in which nearly three dozen people were arrested on outstanding warrants.

Craig also said that despite high profile incidents of violent crime, violent crime is down since the Craig joined the department and implemented what is known as a “Compstat,” a data-driven approach to tracking crime in a city.

Craig said: “At the end of the day a better gauge for me in our success really stems from: Does our community feel safer?”
